University of Colorado football coach Deion Sanders has been absent from summer football camps due to an undisclosed health issue. His son, Deion Sanders Jr., shared during a YouTube livestream that his father is resting at their home in Canyon, Texas, and is “feeling well.” Sanders Jr. indicated that the timeline for their travel to Boulder, where the camps began on June 3, remains uncertain, stating, “I’m waiting until my dad leaves.” Meanwhile, the university has not provided any comments on Sanders’ condition.
Additionally, Sanders canceled a speaking engagement for the Foundation for Sickle Cell Research, with organizers citing an “unavoidable last-minute scheduling change.” Earvin “Magic” Johnson was announced as the new keynote speaker in his absence.
Earlier in May, Sanders addressed his health concerns on a podcast, revealing that he has been experiencing significant issues, which he described as “at a whole other level.” He noted during the interview that he had lost approximately 14 pounds and expressed that his current silence regarding media engagements was due to these health challenges.
Sanders, aged 57, has faced various health difficulties in the past, including surgery-related complications that led to the amputation of two toes. In 2023, he also underwent a lengthy nine-hour surgery on his foot. As he navigates these health issues, both Sanders and his family seem focused on ensuring his recovery before resuming activities, including his coaching responsibilities.
